Peter Stewart

Board Director

With over thirty years’ senior management experience in large scale, high profile, global projects, generally as CEO or one of the senior management team, Peter has led large multidisciplinary teams throughout the globe. In locations as wide spread as the UK, China, India, Singapore, PNG, Australia, the Pacific Islands and Africa, he has seen first-hand the contribution that major events bring to hosting cities.

Peter has held senior roles in Olympic, Commonwealth and Regional Games, and is used to working in high public profile environments where the local community has a strong emotional link and a vested interest in the outcomes.


In 2005, he established the Events Melbourne Branch of the City of Melbourne to support the Council's contribution to Victoria’s major events strategy, including the 2006 Commonwealth Games.

After a two-year assignment as part of a small team of Games experts brought in to assist the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi, Peter moved to PNG where he led the successful delivery of the 2015 Pacific Games in Port Moresby. These Games were a launching pad for a revitalised tourism and events strategy implemented by Papua New Guinea.

During the COVID crisis, Peter led the Tourism and Events team at the Latrobe City Council as it grappled with the huge impacts imposed on both community and commercial events.

Having completed assignments in Singapore, Africa, FIJI and Australia in recent years, Peter in his role as CEO has just successfully delivered the 2023 Pacific Games in Solomon Islands.
